You're the One excerpt & other bits
Yes! Finally got the excerpt up on the website - just had to make sure first that I had the editing right *wink*.

Okay, so since this is now all done, I have had a few days of intense DVD watching. I've watched the entire first season of Z Nation, the entire first season of Warehouse 13, and the entire season 4 of Falling Skies. To top it all off, I also watched a couple of rental DVDs. In-between, I've read my little head off. YES! Has been a great week. Except for...
wait for it...
being off work with a nasty head cold.
Yes! Can you believe it? Finally finished all the book editing and then came down with a head cold. Didn't stop me reading though - no way. I just wiped my eyes, had the little bin and a box of tissues beside me, and kept on going.
Now this is the thing. My mother always tells me to go to sleep, to rest. I can't lie there and look at the back of my eyelids unless I am REALLY REALLY sick. Otherwise I basically get bored out of my brain. I have to read or watch TV, I can't lie there. So that's what I did, curled up with my books and sniffled and coughed and read. So it wasn't all bad!
Feeling heaps better, still on cold tablets but forging on to work tomorrow. Gotta get up and go go go! (though I hate the 6am rising time...I rise, I don't shine, let me give you the tip)
I work all day tomorrow, then Tuesday have an early shift, so Tuesday afternoon I will be plotting the next book. My play time is over!!! Never mind, have some ideas that I will map out then it's the start of the next book.
Currently, at this time, book 6 will be the last in the Gully's Fall series. I have been asked if Jason will appear in the Gully's Fall series, but no, I don't plan for that to happen. Jason, I feel, has moved on and started a new life, so his story will take place elsewhere. Do I have ideas for his story? A couple which I have jotted down and filed away for when the time has come for his book.
But meanwhile, there is a hunky vet to write about - oops, did I let that slip out????

Hi SilkeYeah, couldn't leave the vet out LOL. He kinda happened, never planned for him! That's what happens when these side characters pop out at you...
I'm chewing my nails until the release!
Meanwhile, enjoying myself -I mean working hard on checking out cover photos for the next book...
Loved the excerpt! ...but it's making it even harder to wait for it :D.So glad that you are feeling better and I hope it keeps improving.
Keep working that hard. I always love the results!

Gad you love the results of the hard work, Dana! LOL Makes it worthwhile!
I just read the excerpt and it was great... I don't no why I do it though because it just makes me all the more impatient! I'm glad your feeling better I myself am at the tail end of a cold thank god!

C'mon Sept 1st!!!

Although I've had worse waits when the excerpt is like the first 2 chapters and about 40 pages long that wait was horrible ;)
And you're the lucky one - living in Australia and getting the book first ;-)

Mine seems to be hanging on. Glad you're at the end of yours!
Great to hear that you had at least some fun. We're counting the days until the release :-))
